Week in Review: November 6, 2009

Shabbat Shalom! With the BJCC’s Festival of Books and Culture, it was a busy week. Jerusalem Mayor Nir Barkat’s visit to Denver also generated much interest. Be sure to enter the BJN’s Favorite Deli Contest using our comment feature. The prize is a Jimmy and Drew’s gift certificate, so definitely worth taking a minute and sharing. Finally, this morning we are starting our weekly Friday “Coffice” Hours (Coffee + Office = “Coffice”). This week we’re at Amante Coffee on north Broadway. Come by and say hello between 9ish am and 11ish am — we’d love to see you!

We’d like to welcome our new advertisers this week: Jimmy and Drew’s 28th St. Deli, The Rose Went Lovely Photography, and Stan Kreis and Kathryn Bernheimer. Our subscriptions, visits and page views continue to grow, and for that we thank all of you. We also want to thank this week’s community authors and those who posted comments to our stories for helping to build the conversation around Jewish life in our community.

Please add the BJN to your website with our easy headline widget, feed widget or a link. Contact us for details. Look for more news after Shabbat.

About Editor

I'm David Fellows, and I've served as a writer, photographer and/or an editor on my junior high and high school newspapers; the Daily Trojan at USC (where I earned my journalism degree); the student newspaper at the Anderson School at UCLA (where I earned my MBA); and I've written and edited countless business documents and presentations in the ensuing twenty years. I was also a professional photographer from 1978 to 1988 (although you never really stop...).
I've been involved Jewishly since my bris and in Boulder since 1995. I'm married to my Executive Director Cheryl, and we have two children, Lauren and Ethan.
